My favorite is money order to a PO box in Canada.

My "actual" personal online worst, isn't that bad, or nearly as bad as
deals gone sour that were local and face to face. One of my wife's old
coworkers was in a serious bind and needed to rent a car for a couple days,
but didn't have a credit card. He kept the car for 27 days and stiffed us
for $850.
